3 Dead in Suspected Hantavirus Outbreak on Cruise Ship in Atlantic Ocean: WHO

U.S. and partner forces conducted a series of airstrikes on terrorist group ISIS targets throughout Syria on Jan. 10, the U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) announced.

The series of airstrikes began around 12:30 p.m. ET, CENTCOM <a href="https://x.com/CENTCOM/status/2010089772120002721">said</a> in a press statement around three hours after the strikes.
<div class="longform-unstyled" data-block="true" data-editor="dr3pd" data-offset-key="a49m8-0-0">
<div class="public-DraftStyleDefault-block public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" data-offset-key="a49m8-0-0">

<span data-offset-key="a49m8-0-0">“The strikes today targeted ISIS throughout Syria as part of our ongoing commitment to root out Islamic terrorism against our warfighters, prevent future attacks, and protect American and partner forces in the region,” the press statement added. “U.S. and coalition forces remain resolute in pursuing terrorists who seek to harm the United States.</span>

Footage shared by CENTCOM showed F-15 and A-10 jet aircraft taking off from an unspecified location, along with footage of strikes on purported targets.

CENTCOM did not specify which partner forces assisted in the Jan. 10 strikes throughout Syria.

Saturday’s strikes are part of a continuing retaliatory bombing that began after two U.S. soldiers and a U.S. civilian interpreter were killed in an ambush attack in Palmyra, Syria, on Dec. 13. Three more American troops were injured in the attack.

ISIS claimed ultimate responsibility for the Dec. 13 shooting, and Syria’s Interior Ministry has said the suspect was a member of Syrian security forces who harbored ISIS sympathies. Syria’s Interior Ministry said it had arrested five more suspects in connection with the Dec. 13 attack.

Since sweeping into Damascus and driving off then-Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in December of 2024, Syria’s de facto interim government has been largely comprised of Sunni Islamist militants from <a href="https://www.theepochtimes.com/us/us-removes-terrorist-designation-from-al-qaeda-affiliate-in-syria-5883764">Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham</a>, which began as a Syrian branch of Al Qaeda.

The U.S. bombing campaign came in response to the Dec. 13 shooting and is known as Operation Hawkeye Strike. The first round of strikes in the campaign <a href="https://www.theepochtimes.com/us/us-strikes-isis-targets-in-syria-in-response-to-killing-of-americans-5960615">began on Dec. 19</a>, when U.S. and Jordanian forces employed dozens of fighter aircraft, attack helicopters, and artillery pieces firing more than 100 munitions, and struck more than 70 ISIS targets across central Syria.

Between Dec. 20 and 29, U.S. and partner forces <a href="https://www.theepochtimes.com/us/us-and-allied-forces-have-killed-or-captured-more-than-2-dozen-isis-operatives-in-syria-5964280">conducted 11 more missions</a> under Operation Hawkeye Strike, in which they reported killing seven ISIS suspects and capturing several others.

“Our message remains strong: if you harm our warfighters, we will find you and kill you anywhere in the world, no matter how hard you try to evade justice,” CENTCOM’s Saturday press statement concluded.

The U.S. military officially began striking ISIS targets in Syria in 2014 and has maintained a continuing troop presence within the country for the past decade. This counter-ISIS mission has coincided with the Syrian civil war, as Assad fought to retain power until rebel forces drove him out in December of 2024.
